Hi just wondering if anyone out there has had their permanent visa application processed through Dar Es Salaam? If so what was your timeline? Closest timeline is Nairobi, which we thought the application would go through!!

I don't think there is. I am calling cic to find out what is the timeline for tanzania office. I guess we are alone in this one . I hope it won't take long . Last thing we need is more waiting . God help us.

Hi Tun701, My wife resides in Nairobi, Kenya. I received my SA and my wife's application was sent to Dar es Salaam, TZ. Do you have any update why or how long it takes to process applications through Dar es salaam visa office?

Hi there!
It's actually my daughter sponsoring my son in law but here is the timeline:
Applied to Missasauga Canada on May 8th
Received AOR 1 June 8
Received SA on July 6 and said correspondence was sent that day
Finally received an email on July 10 saying that the file was being transferred to Dar es Salaam
Just logged on to ECAS and put in her husbands name and it shows that "Application Received"

Hoping that he soon gets an AOR 2 from Dar es Salaam saying that it is there but not all Vacs send them! Going to keep a watch and hoping to see an "in process"

all the applications from DAR are sent to Nairobi this is what i know from my TRV application which i filed in DAR and eventually it was stamped at Nairobi
so i guess you must follow Nairobi timelines

good luck

Thanks so much for the info! I hear Nairobi is moving quite fast these days so that would be welcome news!! Friends of my daughters applied in December and landed in Canada in May!! Was processed in Nairobi! Here's hoping!

Hi all,

So after all the back and forth with CIC (because they had never informed me about AOR or SA by letter/email), I finally received the letter and it says that my application has been transferred to Dar-e-salam VO!!! I had put Nairobi VO in my application so I'm really surprised and don't know if this is good or bad. Can anyone please weigh in on this if it has also happened to them? Thanks!

Looks like the list is growing for TZ applicants :)

I think we should make spreadsheet to help others that will eventually get their application sent to Tanzania visa office .
We need someone to make us the spreadsheet asap . It would be great . Nairobi thread doesn't have it and I wondered.

I want to send report to TZ visa office. Can someone give me their address ? I couldn't find it online all I got was

In case anyone finds this thread and has the same query. It took almost exactly 4 weeks.

I received my PPR on 6th September,
Sent passport on 8th September,
VFS confirmed Reciept on 11th September.
My CIC application approved notification received on 3rd October.
VFS notified that the passport was on its way I believe on the 4th
COPR and passport received back on 6th October.

... All the best to Anyone still going through this process.
